If you know me at all, then you know that my love for Tobe Hooper’s 1974 film, The Texas Chain Saw Massacre, runs far and wide. I mean, my dog is named Gunnar if that tells you anything, so it was real treat to be able to speak with Allen …

If you know me, you know that body horror is my jam. I fucking love The Family Cronenberg, The Thing, Society, Slither. Raw… I could go on for hours. I wasn’t sure what to expect with Shell, the new film directed by Max Minghella (Teen Spirit) and written by Jack …

After reading Brian’s first two books, Curse of the Reaper, and Candy Cain Kills, …

Jimmy and Stiggs, written and directed by Joe Begos and starring Joe and Matt Mercer, is a neon-drenched, drug-induced fever nightmare of an alien abduction movie, and I wouldn’t expect anything less from Joe (read our other interviews with him HERE and HERE). Joe is fairly new to the filmmaking …

Lily Hayes Kaufman, the daughter of Troma founder Lloyd Kaufman, has made a documentary on what could be Troma’s last trip to the Cannes Film Festival and it’s pretty damn good. It follows Lloyd and the Troma team to the famed French film festival and gives fans and viewers a …

Prior to watching A Blind Bargain, the 2025 film directed by Paul Bunnell, written by Paul and John Falotico, and based on the lost 1922 Lon Chaney film of the same name, I really had no idea what a “lost” film is. The new film, starring Crispin Glover (A River’s …
